[Blood level kinetics of sodium noramidopyrine methanesulfonate (Analgin) in late pregnancy].

The pharmacokinetic parameters were investigated after a single application of 1,0 g of Analgin to women in labour in comparison with a nonpregnant control group. During the late stage of pregnancy the distribution volume is only slightly increasing. For Analgin a fundamental influence on the level of serum concentration could not be shown. The biological half-life of Analgin shows remarkable individual differences and does not differ significantly between the two investigated groups. Therefore, during pregnancy a change of the applied dose is not indicated.
